Lexapro and Sabril drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lexapro (escitalopram oxalate) and Sabril (vigabatrin). Common drug interactions include flushing among females and seizure among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lexapro and Sabril. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 28 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
